SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 530,6elO,vd`ated December V11,718.94. Appliomou ined october 10.1893. sein No. 487.779. (No moda l make'and use the same.-

lVhere gas and oil stoves are employed for cooking it is often desirable in cool weather to obtain from them heat for the'purpose of warming the apartment in which such stoves are located, or adjoining rooms. The burners of such stoves are, however, generally at the top of the device and not capable of imparting to the atmosphere of the room any great amount of heat.

It is the object of my improvement to provide a simple and inexpensive attachment for ordinary gas, gasoline or oil cooking stoves by the use of which a great amount of heat can beeconomically obtained therefrom,and which may be readily put in place or removed accordingly as itis desired to use the stove for heating or cooking.

With such object in view my invention consists in the parts and combinations thereof hereinafter set forth and claimed. Y

AIn order to make my invention more 'clearly understood I have shown in the accompanying drawings means for carrying it into practical eiect withoutlimiting myimprovements, in their useful applications to the particular construction which, for `the sake of illustration, I have delineated.

In said drawing'sz-Figure 1 is a perspective view of a heater embodying my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of the same. Fig. 3 is a horizontal sectional view on line 3-3 of Fig. 2. f

Referring to the drawings, 1 indicates the burner or burners of an ordinary gas cooking stove, portions of the top of which latter are shown at 2.

3 indicates one or more ascending drums or ducts, their number depending on the number of burners to be utilized for heating purposes,

open at their lower ends and adapted to iit v -the exit of the air therefrom, so as to cause the air and products of combustion, carried up the drums 3 from the burners, to thoroughly heat the drums and box before they escape. Such means may consist of a vplate 6 which partially closes the end of the box 5. Preferably the air opening or openings, shown at 7, is or are arranged near the side walls or plates of the box 5 as shown so as to cause the heating air to pass down. close to said walls andhighly heat the box on all sides.

8, 8 indicate doors in the drums 3 near their lower ends and in proximity to the burners 1. Through these doors the burners may be lighted, and an additional` quantity of air may be admitted to the drums, and, being provided with panes 9 of mica, serve to display the burner flames. At their lower ends the drums are shaped as by notches 10, to interlock with portions of the stove top such as the bars 2 and secure the heater from falling over.

I prefer to construct the attachment of sheet iron, surmounting it by an ornamental top or vase 11.

12 is a door formed in the side of the box 5 whereby theexit of a greater quantity of air may be permitted,'and through which such p bining in the box 5 the latter is also very highly heated, the whole device serving to produce much warmth and obtaining the maximum calorific eect from the gas consumed. 5 What I claim is A detachable heater for gas, or oil or other cooking stoves, consistingof supporting drums open at their lower ends and adapted to rest upon the stove over the burners thereof, and

1o the central depending box or drum carried by and communicating with said supporting drums, and having at its lower end an exib opening or openings for the heated air, substantially as set forth.

In testimony whereof Iax my signature in 1 5 the presence of two Witnesses.
